: Here's my problem: scripts, for the most part, SUCK! Big budget movies like Men In Black (great comic), Pearl Harbor (sorry Ben), and and The Sum of All Fears (again, sorry Ben) use so much of their budgets on speacial effects and big names that they can't afford good screenwriters.
I completely disagree with your theory that MEN IN BLACK doesn't have a good screenplay. It successfully created an entire world quite nicely, had some pretty cool characters, AND wasn't afraid to have a bittersweet ending. Huzzah to MEN IN BLACK, bring on the sequel!
